5.0 out of 5 stars SURPRISE...IT'S ACTUALLY GOOD!, December 15, 2004

I'm normally not a fan of hip-hop (it's usually much too crass and vulgar for my taste), but when I heard a K'Maro song in a store in Montreal I was hooked! K'Maro's style is actually more toward R&B, though there are a couple of hip-hop tracks (notably "Femme Like U" which is the song that got me to buy this CD in the first place). Interestingly, the guy can sing so this is not just rap. Good voice, slightly raspy (sexy, even!), and he sings on key and can hit the notes! How many rappers can say that? Anyway, the surprise twist to all this is that K'Maro is fully bilingual and performs easily in either french or english, often within the same song! Very different and effective. And a bonus for those who might remember 80's pop music...the background vocals are by Nancy Martinez whose big hit was "For Tonight" back in the mid-80's. Overall, a very good and incredibly fun album. (And full lyrics are included so you can follow along and perhaps even try your hand at rapping in french!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great surprise, January 9, 2005

Usually I don't go for French rap, because I always thought that the language is too soft for that. K'maro is the first artist to my knowledge who makes French R&B and Rap-Music sound good. He already caught my attention with Femme like U when it was only on radio for promotion. Well done.

Very Nice Album, one of the best album I'Ve ever Heard ... I'm not a big fan of French Hip-Hop/Rap music but this album makes all the difference I swear

Like K'Maro says in is greatings : "I've made a promise to give you a big album, well I arranged myself to serve you well ... Enjoy"

5 Stars and More !!
